Abstract

Unusually heavy catches of oil sardine (Sardinella longiceps) by shore seines have been made in the coastal waters at Pamban, Kundukal point and Rameswaram during the first week of January, 1990. On 2nd January, an estimated catch of about 10 tonnes was caught in a single unit of shore seine (Marukku valai) operated at Kundukal point. The fishes landed by the trawlers were relatively larger, being in the range of 17 - 20 cm.
